Loyalty to employees, great work atmosphere. Buildings are the best in class and the company is fair and honest in all it's dealings. Every co-worker I come in contact with is very proud of what we do, how we do it and the results we get.

Cons

Dress code; ties and jackets required except in the summer. Most of our clients waer "business casual" and sometimes we are "out of place" in our suits.

I have been working at Boston Properties full-time (more than 5 years)

Pros

Great 401K, holidays, time off. Health insurance used to be better but that is pretty much everywhere now.Employee perks are great. Some of the managers are really great to work with.It is a great company, but some things need to change.

Cons

- People that do great are rarely recognized, the recognition always goes to the manager that didn't do anything.- Won't promote from within to people that deserve it, think that you are nothing without a bachelors degree even though you have more on the job experience than someone who has a bachelors off the street.- Pile a lot of extra work on without getting paid for what you truly do.- Pay isn't all that great.- Micromanagement, higher management treat lower level employees like they don't know what they are doing.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Recognize the lower level people that help your properties run and create a good name for your company. Promote people that truly deserve it, don't hold them back just because of education, on the job experience goes a long way and is valuable as well.

Do not promote from within, no opportunity for advancement, annual review process is very time consuming to only have the same result of a very small raise and no title change, office management treats employees like children.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

You are losing great employees left and right because they feel under appreciated.

- nice office space- successful company who prides themselves at being the best at what they do- supportive of development and promote within

Cons

micromanagers running certain departments. looking at what time you get to your desk, what time you leave for lunch, when you leave for the day, etc. not a laid back envirnoment at all. very stuffy mens club.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

get some good managers in there and make sure people are excited about coming in to work everyday. it would help with the turnover.
